Real life Thailand models?
Of course…
Hey…
We’re done. That’s…
…4 hours of power blogging, completed…
Did you like it?
Did you sign up to my ezine?
You can… it’s easy… just go here > Thai girl Thai life ezine

It’s all in fun.
I want to bring across the essence of fun, relaxation, enjoyment.
And remember what this blogathon was for…
To raise awareness about [...]

I can’t really generalize and say every Thai person is friendly.
But, it sure does feel like that sometimes.
It rubs off on you.
It’s definitely something in the water.
Hippy blissful? Maybe. Certainly warm and welcoming…
They’ve grown up smiling. It’s contagious.
Almost as contagious as blogging non stop for four hours…
And, I like the tropics… everything just [...]

Would you consider retirement Thailand?
You’d have to seriously consider all aspects to it…
Thailand has a lot of good things going for it.
Some great resorts, a relaxed lifestyle, healthy food.
Charming people.
Low cost of living.
Can be very hot (tropical) and stormy.
The question really is…
Where would you live?
Go beach, or go mountain.
Or go inland…
Food for thought…
.

Thailand living costs:
Simple quick meal @ local shop 30 baht  (0.94 US)
Mama noodles (one pack fills you up) 5 baht (O.16 US)
(Not exactly nutritious though…
Fill tank petrol on motorcycle (150cc) 200 baht ($6.24 US)
Internet high speed broadband one month 700 baht ($21.84 US)
House rental depends on what you want. Average Thai,
about 2000 baht [...]

I am now asking myself what was I on to accept this blogging challenge.
It’s not exactly a walk in the park. (Or backyard).
To write a post every 30 minutes is, um, challenging…
Plus pull a photo out that I want to show you.
Edit the photo, find what theme to write about.
By the time you’ve done a [...]

Can’t remember when I last saw a sunny day…
Only kidding.
It’s just that when it rains, it pours.
Here in Southern Thailand, for sure.
And when it pours, it floods.
And when it floods, people move their homes
belongings, to higher ground.
In Hat Yai, a small city 2 hours South East of here,
I recall it raining super heavy, [...]

It’s nice to be back (so soon).
Here’s us taking a quick look in a Thai primary school room…
Relaxed style. Take a seat under the desk.
I have all the time in the world for these kiddies.
It’s a culture shock if you ever teach in a Thai classroom.
But I’ve heard some Westerners quite enjoy it.
I hope [...]

Man, the time moves fast when you’re having fun…
You’ve taken a few breaths and it’s time to post again.
That’s the beauty of it I guess…
I’m starting to think about… some sort of sponsorship…
just an idea… for Thai people I know…
They could really do with some practical ideas to make
money… and online seems like the way [...]

Let’s face it. It’s a noisy country. Incredibly laid back. No one seems particularly bothered by anything in particular…
I’d like to talk about world events with the Thai people I meet, but hardly ever do so. That might be me. Or just this culture.
And indeed it is loud. The lifestyle is loud. The people can [...]

How about this…
On September 15th, 2007 I will…
Post a note to this blog - and then keep posting a new
message every 30 minutes… for the next 4 hours.
What’s the MINI-Blogathon and why blog for four hours straight?
No. 1: I never do anything like this, so it’s probably a good time to start.
No. 2: To raise [...]

Crazy Thai Farang Interview

Good news for all.
YouTube is back online for users here in Thailand.
That just means we can go to the YouTube site and watch videos and put up our own videos.
Thanks to whoever made that happen…
And here’s something else. Sorry but it’s not a Thailand webcam girl video.
It’s a Thailand webcam Hurley video…

I’ve been spending a good deal of time with this great Thai girl who’s quite fond of saying the word “hot.” (In Thai, of course).
Now, I think she’s talking about herself being hot. As in, right now “I need to relax because I’m feeling hot.” Or, maybe the weather’s hot.
Whatever it is, it’s hot.
It’s funny. [...]
